Simulation of Coking in Convection Section of Steam Cracker

This work presents CFD simulations of coke formation in the tubes of the mixture over-heater in the convection section of a steam cracker. An actual industrial feed (Gas condensate) composition is used in the simulations. The spray flow (liquid droplets in the feed) entering the tubes is simulated b...
